Pick my new racing bike...
OK. My Tarmac is getting retired sometime towards the end of this year (or really, getting relegated to rain/etc duty). Whatever I get isn't going to get built up until SRAM Red comes out, and won't be complete until the new Dura Ace 7850 Wheels come out, but i'm gonna start looking for a good deal on whatever frame I pick now since I have to find the right size, etc, etc...
In the end, the vote works out like this: You guys: 10%, Me: 30%, Coach: 50%, Price: 10%, but hey, you still have a 10% say in this, and i'm really interested in what other people have to say.
I'm thinking right now of either an S-Works Tarmac, Scott CR1 (or possibly an addict), Look something (565? 585?), Pinarello F4:13, or a BMC *gulp*. Price is a consideration, but I want to get something that is nice and won't be obsolete tomorrow.
If you'd like to suggest something else, here are the qualifications:
1) CF only... Sorry, no Ti!
2) MUST be a race geometry (no Trek Pilots, Specialized Roubaix, etc)
3) No Treks, Cervelos, or Times (personal preference, sorry!)'
OK. Flame away (or better yet, give real opinions and experience!), but make it exciting... I'm bored at work!
